About Us
At VANA Invest, we believe the most valuable opportunities emerge when capital and land are aligned through purpose.
We connect global investors with visionary Thai landowners in ways that honour legacy, unlock potential, and create long-term value.
VANA (Sanskrit: वन · Thai: วนา)
VANA means forest in Sanskrit — a living system that grows slowly, roots deeply, and connects generations.
It also echoes the Thai word “wana” (วนา), meaning nature — grounding our identity in both cultural wisdom and ecological purpose.
The VANA Story
VANA means forest in Sanskrit — a living system that grows slowly, roots deeply, and connects generations.
We were founded with a deep respect for the land and the people who hold it. In a market where opportunity is often transactional, we bring a different approach — one that is relational, design-led, and built on trust.
We saw a growing need for a bridge between international capital and Thai landowners with untapped, often generational holdings. Rather than commoditize land, we co-create strategies that elevate it — economically, culturally, and ecologically.
Who We Work With
We work with three kinds of partners: Thai landowners, strategic investors, and collaborators who bring bold, place-sensitive ideas to life.
Visionary Investors
Family offices and investment groups seeking rare access to land with untapped long-term potential.
Thai Landowners
Landholders ready to structure and unlock value in their generational or underutilised land.
Global Collaborators
Brands, developers, and institutions pursuing meaningful, place-based opportunities in Thailand.
Our Beliefs
We build with care, align around what matters, and shape value that endures.
Trust follows aligned intent
When values and incentives line up, stronger outcomes follow.
Design must fit the land
We shape opportunities through cultural, spatial, and emotional understanding.
Value is made to last
We invest in outcomes that benefit all sides — not short-term gains.
The Team Behind VANA
We are strategists, designers, and dealmakers — united by a shared respect for land, legacy, and long-term value.
